Holiday shopping and a Fisker Ocean One Test Drive
My first test drive was at a Fisker popup, and boy did it pop! By December 2023, Fisker had opened their first Los Angeles pop up showroom, at The Grove. This is a trend amongst new cars that don't have a traditional dealership network, they would open a storefront in...
